JuliusM: ESignal is excellent. Very reliable. The word flawless comes to mind. You can leave it on and forget about it, and concentrate only on trading.

When I used QCharts, I didn't find that to be the case at all. The word frustrating comes to mind. Or maddening.

ESignal has recently released a new beta with some new features, too. I've experienced no problems with the beta.

Julius......just read the response from brookelise and had to laugh. I've been with q-charts for the past two years and the graphics and the way one can use its chaarts is excellent. There is no other service that can beat it. Unfortunately, like he explained about a month ago q-charts was having huge problems with reliability, but since then I haven't had any problems at all. Actually, I wanted to try another service to have another one as a backup so I tried esignal. IMO..it was the worst one of the lot. Graphics and capabilities didn't compare to q-charts. So now that I have confused you, obviously these services are really about what suits your taste, so its important to try them all and see.

JuliusM, I just read TraderXx response and had to laugh real loud.

Brooke was one of the first users of QCharts and was responsible for getting me to use QCharts. We had great service until they sold to Lie Cos. We stayed with them over a year and fought the problems but the service only worsened. What TraderX says about a couple of months problems is just not true!

I switched to ESignal and have NEVER had one problem (about 5 months now....NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!

QCharts has great charting ability but that does one no good unless they get a feed to produce the chart. I personally want reliable data first and with Esignal I have had that in spades.

JuliusM,

Let me make a correction. You have been using QuoteTracker with Schwab. The quotes from Schwab are inefficient, NOT QuoteTracker. If you used a different quote source instead of Schwab, you would see a drastic improvement. For example, MarketFeed provides tick-by-tick streaming data for QuoteTracker users for up to 200 symbols at the same time and will not overload your DSL line. Money.net data is also real fast, but max 80 symbols at a time.

MarketFeed - quotetracker.com - $19.95 per month + exchange fees. Max 200 symbols, tick-by tick

Money.net - quotetracker.com - $9.99 per month including fees, 30 day free trial. Max 80 symbols.

With either one, you will see a drastic improvement over Schwab quotes, without having to spend $80 or more a month.
